^^^The last time I was up there way a huge field of grass that wrapped the lower unit and shut off the water pressure. Worried that I would pop the motor I came back out. As if the stump fields were not enough...not worth it for a new motor.

yes.. because I went up there before we got the big rains in Oct that raised the lake. Due to the silting that was in the mouth and the grown up vegetation past the power lines due to the drought it was pretty much not navigable.
